is this a symptom or a disease? can this be a symptom of chronic lyme also?
Posted by Gerard Bobis (Member # 22747) on :
i dont take any medicines, only supplements such as vit.C,B and multi-vit. i am taking this eversince i feel bad..
i dont drink alcohol, and i am always drinking water and juices 10 glasses a day. but if you had yellow urine, they say you're dehydrated right? i always had that but i know i take a lot of liquid in me..
it's progression as ive said before. last month i dont have any symptom of dryness..
can an anti-inflammatory product help? i also notice hair falling..this started last week..

Hope you can find a way to get treated for lyme disease.

Gerard, B vitamins will definitely make your urine yellow. Go a day or two without them and you'll see what I mean. Posted by Marnie (Member # 773) on :
Links between EBV and thyroid and thyroid and MS and EBV and MS.
*In mice*...thyroid hormones tamed down MS symptoms and prolactin spontaneously restored the myelin sheath.

Biotin 7,500 mg helps me for hair.

marnie,
if I understand the text they treated a virus with immunsuppressant?? This does not make any sense.
"Epstein-Barr virus genome in situ hybridization study. Following corticosteroid and cyclophosphamide therapy, clinical symptoms and radiologic infiltrations gradually remitted."
My EBV is inactive, so it would not bother me.

just want to correct you on this. corticosteroids are bad. Anabolic steroids are good (well for males at least)

EBV re-emerges. I know...my daughter right now...and hair loss...even her eyelashes...dry eyes...thyroid cyst...
Her doc just put her on very high dose steroids. (She does not have lyme.)
While testosterone has many protective features, it is implicated in prostate cancer.
Look very closely at the relationship between testosterone and PKC..
And estrogen and PKC.
Bb has a PKC inhibitor. It looks to be PKCB2...(I thought it was PKCd.)
P= protein K= kinase (they transfer phosphate groups) C= calcium activated
Bb is INHIBITING phosphate transfer (2, actually)
I think when Bb infects the defense cells and is INSIDE the cell with its PKCB2 inhibitor, the cell sends to the surface a call for help...
The receptor, CB2. Our antibody to Bb's OspB (when it is healthy and is made) locks onto that receptor.
This triggers an enzyme called amylase hemolysin which breaks down RBC's (releasing Mg), AND it breaks down liposomes (which make up lipoproteins).
Activating the CB2 receptor - getting our OWN antibody to lock onto that receptor looks like it maybe a good thing.
"Pot" activates CB1 AND CB2.
Drug companies are scrambling to find drugs that impact that receptor - CB2.
Karen, in the book, "Hippocrates Shadow" which was written by an ER doctor, on page 27 he says:
"Once you get the the pain under control, the infection usually takes care of itself."
Inflammation -> pain.
We GOTTA get the inflammation down WHILE hitting the pathogen...viral, bacterial, fungal.
I think there are many pathogens that trigger cytokine storms (tremendous inflammation) as a way to HELP THEM INVADE.
Including H1N1.

It is not. Another lie which was spreading to smear anabolic steroids . It is only counter-indicated when you already have prostate cancer. There was a study people with lower testosterone have higher chances to get cancers

I have been diagnosed with this recently while treating Lyme. I don't know if it is a result of the Lyme or the treatment. I was beginning to get strange sensations of irritation in the glands in the corners of my eyes. I also had positive blood tests that came back.
My doc gave me Plaquenil and this seems to be helping a lot.
I still need to ramp up my dose.

In the few available case series describing testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)
***after*** treatment of PCa,
no case of clinical or biochemical progression was observed. The available data suggest that TRT can be cautiously considered in selected hypogonadal men previously treated for curative intent of low-risk PCa and
***without evidence of active disease.***

I'll help you out...it is not actually testosterone, it is the precursor, aldosterone that is the problem...re: Na.

I said in case when you dont have prostate cancer already. How could I be more clear? And BTW if you want find the side effects of all those "treatments" (which are equal to chemical castration) they promote for prostate cancer, type in pubmed "low testosterone".
